PREFACE 


The  Danish  Folk-Dances  have  the  freshness,  simplicity  and  appealing  charm 
that  is  common  to  all  real  folk-dances  and  folk-songs.  The  dances  contained  in 
this  volume  are  real  folk-dances  of  Denmark  which  were  collected,  described  and 
published  by  the  Danish  Society  for  the  Promotion  of  Folk-Dancing,  who  have 
done  me  the  honor  of  authorizing  my  translation  of  their  work. 

The  idea  of  forming  a  Folk-Dance  Society  in  Denmark  grew  out  of  a  demon- 
stration of  Swedish  folk-dances  given  in  Copenhagen  in  1899  by  the  Swedish 
Society  "Philochoros,"  and  it  was  Swedish  folk-dancing  that  was  first  taken  up 
there. 

Later,  however,  in  1901,  the  Danish  Society  for  the  Promotion  of  Folk-Dancing 
was  organized  and  the  work  of  collecting  the  folk-dances,  music  and  costumes  of 
Denmark  was  begun.  This  was  carried  on  with  some  financial  aid  from  the  gov- 
ernment and  resulted  in  the  accumulation  of  a  store  of  valuable  material. 

The  descriptions  of  the  dances  were  written  out  and  the  music  arranged  by 
committees  and  later  were  published  by  the  Society.  A  collection  of  costumes 
was  made  which  is  particularly  valuable,  as  in  many  localities  the  beautiful  and 
quaint  old  folk-costumes  have  now  entirely  disappeared. 

It  was  to  this  Society  that  Rudolf  Petersen,  the  Danish  artist,  came  for  assist- 
ance in  painting  his  now  famous  frieze  of  National  Costume  in  ( '.runtvigs  House, 
which  I  have  used  as  the  cover  decoration  of  this  volume. 

New  York,  1915.  ELIZABETH  BURCHENAL.

FOLK-DANCES    OF    DENMARK 


INTRODUCTION 


Music 

The  repetitions  of  the  music  are  indicated  at  the 
beginning  of  the  description  of  each  of  the  dances. — 
The  numbers  in  parentheses  that  appear  in  the  de- 
scription of  the  dances  refer  to  those  measures  of 
the  music  which  correspond  with  that  part  of  the 
description  which  immediately  follows  the  paren- 
theses. [This  is  slightly  different  from  the  method 
of  describing  the  dances  in  the  original  Danish 
publication,  in  which  the  description  precedes  the 
numbers  in  parentheses  indicating  the  corresponding 
measures  of  music.]-— In  the  music  for  each  dance 
the  measures  are  numbered  to  correspond  with  the 
description. 

Formations 

The  Front  means  the  end  of  the  room  where  the 
music  is. 

Starting  Position  is  the  position  one  occupies  at 
the  beginning  of  the  dance. 

Row  Formation.  Ladies  and  men  stand  opposite 
each  other  in  two  rows,  ladies  to  the  lett,  men  to 
the  right,  as  seen  from  the  front,  the  first  couple 
standing  at  the  end  nearest  the  front. 

Reversed  Row  Formation  is  the  same  as  row  for- 
mation, except  that  the  ladies  are  on  the  right  and 
the  men  on  the  left,  as  seen  from  the  front. 

Quadrille  is  a  set  of  four  couples,  the  first  couple 
standing  with  back  toward  the  music,  the  second 
couple  facing  them,  and  the  third  and  fourth  couples 
to  the  right  and  left  respectively  as  seen  from  the 
first  couple's  position. 

Double  Quadrille  consists  of  eight  couples,  two 
couples  on  each  side  of  the  square.  We  speak  here 
of  first,  second,   third   and    fourth   sides  instead    of 

25614  xi 


couples.      The  positions  of  the  sides  correspond  to 
those  of  the  couples  in  the  quadrille. 

Hand  Positions  and  Ways  of  Holding  Partner 

When  nothing  else  is  specified  the  position  of  the 
hand  is  free. 

In  Row  Formation  both  hands  are  free. 

In  Quadrille  and  Double  Quadrille  the  man 
holds  the  lady's  left  hand  with  his  right  and  the 
lady's  right  hand  is  free. 

Ordinary  Position.  The  man  puts  his  right  arm 
around  the  lady's  waist  and  holds  her  right  hand  in 
his  left,  the  lady  placing  her  left  hand  on  the  man's 
right  shoulder. 

One  Hand  Grasp.  Each  of  the  two  dancers 
grasps  with  the  right  hand  the  other's  right,  or  with 
the  left  hand  the  other's  left. 

Two  Hand  Grasp.  The  two  dancers  face  each 
other  and,  with  arms  held  straight,  join  both  hands, 
the  right  hand  with  partner's  left  and  the  left  hand 
with  partner's  right. 

Arm  Hook.  Facing  in  opposite  directions,  the 
two  dancers  hook  right  arms  with  the  elbows  very 
much  bent  (Right  Arm  Hook)  or  hook  left  arms 
(Left  Arm  Hook). 

Back  Grasp  (or  Three  Hand  Grasp).  Each  of 
the  two  dancers  turns  the  right  side  toward  the 
other,  and  each  puts  the  left  arm  behind  the  back. 
The  lady  takes  hold  of  the  man's  left  hand  with  her 
right,  and  the  man  puts  his  right  arm  under  the 
hub's  right  and  takes  hold  of  her  left  hand. 

Cross  Grasp.  Standing  either  face  to  face  or  side 
by  side  ("Front  Cross  Grasp"  or  "Side  Cross 
Grasp"),  partners  join  both  hands,  right  with  right 
and  left  with  left. 


INTRODUCTION 


Back  Cross  Grasp.  Partners  stand  side  by  side  the  left  is  raised.  Make  a  little  hop  forward  on  the 
and,  with  their  hands  behind  them,  each  with  the  right  toot,  at  the  same  time  bringing  the  lett  around 
right  hand  grasps  the  other's  right  hand  and  with  in  a  little  circle  behind  the  right.  Put  down  the 
the  left  grasps  the  other's  left.  lett  foot  close  behind  the  right  and  at  the  same  time 

raise  the  right  toot.  Make  a  little  hop  forward  on 
the  left  toot,  and  so  on.  The  step  is  danced  on 
the  same  spot  and  as  high  on  the  toes  as  possible.

French  Reel  Step  is  like  the  Reel  Step,  except 
that  the  free  foot  describes  a  large  circle  forward, 
outward  and  backward  and  is  placed  beside  the 
other : 


etc. 


Side  Run.      One  foot  is  moved  one  step  to  the 

side,  the  other  toot  is  brought  up  to  it ;    the  first 

Waist  Grasp.      In  couples  (or  in  a  circle).     The     foot  is  moved  again  one  step  in  the  same  direction 

men  hold  the  ladies  around  the  waist  and  the  ladies      as  before,  and  the  other  is  brought  up  to  it ;  and  so 

put  their  hands  on  the  men's  shoulders.  on. 

Shoulder  Grasp.     The  dancers  place  their  hands 


on  each  others'  shoulders. 

Steps 
Walking,    Running,    Polka,    Hopsa,    Waltz    and 
Mazurka  steps  scarcely  need  to  be  described. 


Buzz  Step.  This  step  is  sometimes  used  when 
a  couple  swings  around  in  place,  and  sometimes  in 
"Mills"  and  "Circles."  When  danced  by  a  couple, 
the  dancers  put  their  right  feet  together,  so  that  the 
outside  edge  of  one  touches  the  outside  edge  of  the 
other  (in  "Mills"   and  "Circles"   the  right  toot  is 


Hop  Step  is  danced  with  a  hop,  first  on  one  foot     p]aced  tQward  the  centre)>  and  then  mn  around  with 


and  then  on  the  other,  as  in  stepping.  In  some 
dances  this  may  be  a  long  or  a  short  hop  forward. 
Sometimes,  especially  in  dancing  around  in  place, 
the  step  is  taken  backward  ("Other  Night's  Steps"). 
In  some  dances  there  will  be  added  a  lifting  of  the 
heel,  as  for  instance  in  the  "Jew  Dance";  but 
always  in  the  hop  step  the  feet  constantly  move 
past  each  other  as  in  ordinary  walking. 

Two  Step.  This  is  done  by  turning  quickly 
around  on  the  left  foot,  a  half-turn,  at  the  same 
time  swinging  the  right  leg  around  in  a  circle  (the 
feet  some  distance  apart  like  the  legs  of  an  open 
compass),  then  putting  down  the  right  foot  and 
turning  around  on  it,  at  the  same  time  swinging  the 
left  foot  around  in  a  circle,  and  so  on  : 


the  left  foot,  the  right  foot  moving  only  a  little  for 
each  step  taken  by  the  left  foot.

Reel  Step.      The  right  foot  is  put  down  on  the 


Balance.  The  right  foot  is  moved  a  little  to  the 
right  side,  the  left  foot  is  placed  a  little  in  tront  of 
the  right,  the  right  foot  is  moved  a  little  forward 
close  behind  the  left.  The  left  foot  is  moved  to 
the  left  side,  the  right  in  front,  the  left  brought  up 
close  behind  the  right ;  and  so  on. 

Chasse.  The  left  (or  right)  toot  is  moved  one 
step,  the  right  (or  left)  foot  is  brought  up  to  it,  the 
left  (or  right)  foot  is  moved  again  one  step  in  the 
same  direction  as  before. 

Spring  Away  Step  is   usually  danced   to  the  left 


floor  directly  behind  the  left,  and  at  the  same  time      ("with  the  sun")  with,  for  instance,  two  hand  grasp.

INTRODUCTION 


Tn  dancing  around  on  one  spot  put  down  the  left 
foot,  then  place  the  right  foot  straight  in  front  of 
the  left ;  move  the  left  foot  again  a  little  step  to  the 
left  and  then  place  the  right  foot  straight  behind  the 
left.  The  step  is  continued  in  this  manner  with 
the  right  foot  placed  alternately  in  front  ot  and  be- 
hind the  left  foot :

In  dancing  around  the  room  the  steps  are  a  little 
different.  After  the  right  foot  has  been  placed  in 
front  of  the  left,  the  left  foot  is  moved  a  longer  or 
shorter  step  to  the  side  with  a  jump,  after  which  the 
right  is  placed  behind  it ;  and  so  on. 

Tyrolian  Step.  The  step  used  in  the  beginning 
of  the  common  Tyrolian  Waltz.  [Editor's  Note. 
The  Tyrolian  Waltz  referred  to  is  as  follows : 
Partners  stand  side  by  side  with  inside  hands  joined. 
(A)  Beginning  with  the  outside  foot  they  make  tour 
balances,  during  two  measures  of  music,  swinging 
the  joined  hands  forward  and  back  twice.  (This 
is  the  "Tyrolian  Step.")  (B)  Then  in  ordinary 
position  they  waltz  together  during  two  more 
measures  ;  and  so  on.] 

[Tyrolian  Hopsa.  The  same  as  Tyrolian  Waltz, 
except  that  in  dancing  around  atter  the  tour  balances 
Hopsa  is  danced  instead  of  ordinary  waltz.      Ed.] 

Tinker's  Step.  Put  down  the  right  foot  in  front 
of  the  left,  step  backward  on  the  left  foot  and  draw 
the  right  foot  after  it,  then  swing  the  left  foot  slowly 
around  in  a  circle  and  put  it  down  in  front  of  the 
right.  Step  backward  on  the  right  foot  and  draw 
the  left  foot  after  it,  then  swing  the  right  toot 
around  in  a  circle  and  put  it  down  in  front  ot  the 
left ;  and  so  on.

Miscellaneous  Terms 

With  the  Sun  means  in  the  same  direction  as  the 
hands  of  a  clock.  (For  instance,  in  the  case  of  a 
circle  formation  the  dancers  would  move  from  right 
to  left  around  the  circle.  In  the  case  of  an  indi- 
vidual dancer  the  movement  would  be  a  right  about 
turn.) 

Against  the  Sun  means  the  reverse  of  the  above. 

Dancing  Around  may  be  done  either  "with  the 
sun"  or  "against  the  sun,"  in  place,  around  the 
room,  or  around  in  the  set.  If  not  otherwise 
specified,  it  is  done  moving  around  the  room 
"against  the  sun"  and  turning  about  "with  the  sun." 

Reverse.  Turning  against  the  sun  in  round

Two  Hand  Mill  is  made  l>v  tour  dancers  facing  joining  hands  thus  across  the  centre  the  arms  are 
inward    toward    the  centre  of  the  square  and   each      interlaced.      In   mills  and  circles  which  are  danced, 

first  to  the  left  and  then  to  the  right,  the  change 
of  direction  is  made  with  an  appel. 

Arch  is  formed  by  two  dancers  joining  both 
hands  and  raising  them  so  that  the  arms  form  an

otherwise  specified,  each  man  takes  first  his  own 
lady's  right  hand  with  his  right,  then  the  next  lady's 
lett  hand  with  his  lett,  and  so  on.  The  men  dance 
around  the  circle  against  the  sun  and  the  ladies  with 
the  sun.  Other  kinds  of  chain  are  described  in 
the  dances  in  which  they  occur. 

Turns  during  a  dance  in  a  circle  or  quadrille  are 
made  facing  inward.

SONDERHO   DANCE 


(Island 

Music  |  i-8  |  9-16  |. 
Danced  in  couples. 

A.  (1-8)  Man  and  lady  go  slowly  arm  in  arm 
or  hand  in  hand  around  the  room. 

[In  olden  times  the  lady  used  to  step  in  front  of 
the  man  over  to  his  left  side,  and  then  behind  him 
back  to  her  place  during  the  last  two  measures 
(7-8).] 

B.  The  man  takes  the  lady's  right  hand  in  his 
left,  which  he  holds  on  his  hip  ;  he  places  his  right 
hand  high  on  the  lady's  back  while  she  places  her 
left  hand  on  his  right  shoulder-blade.  With  this 
grasp  they  dance,  turning  around  right  with  the  fol- 
lowing "Sonderho  Step"  :  The  man  puts  the  left 
foot  one  step  straight  forward,  swings  the  free  right 
foot  in  a  circle  and  puts  it  down  a  little  way  behind. 
At  the  same  time  he  turns  around  on  both  feet, 
lifting  the  heels  and  then  putting  them  down. 
After  this  he  places  the  right  foot  a  bit  to  the  side. 
Meanwhile  the  lady  has  moved  the  right  foot  a 
little  forward,  moved  the  left  foot  up  to  it,  and 
again  moved  the  right  foot  forward.  Atter  this 
little  chasse  step  a  long  step  or  jump  is  taken  on 
the  left  foot.  Sometimes  after  the  jump  the  tip  of 
the  right  toe  acts  as  a  light  support,  which  is  then 
placed  lightly  on  the  floor  beside  the  left  foot.     To 


of  Fan0) 

the  first  four  measures  of  the  music  the  steps  are  as 
follows  :

etc. 


Though  the  music  is  in  %  time,  three  quarter-notes 
will  be  used  to  execute  the  step.  In  the  eight  meas- 
ures (9-16)    five  Sonderho  steps  will  be  danced. 

During  these  steps  the  couple  progress  only  a 
short  distance  (some  few  feet)  around  the  room 
against  the  sun,  but  at  the  same  time  on  each  Son- 
derho step  they  make  a  complete  about  turn,  with 
the  sun.  The  movement  should  be  continuous 
and  smooth  and  without  any  sudden  change  in 
speed.  The  lady's  jumps  are  smaller  or  larger  ac- 
cording to  the  way  the  music  is  played.  During 
the  turn  the  man  should  swing  the  lady  around 
vigorously  but  smoothly  and,  if  necessary,  lift  her 
in  the  jump. 

[The  lady's  step  is  practically  the  same  as  in  the 
Polonaise  ("Jydsk  Paa  Naesen"),  while  the  man's 
is  very  much  like  the  step  of  the  Swedish  "Hambo 
Polska,"  except  that  the  time  is  different.]

his  right,  and  thrusts  his  left  thumb  into  his  armhole, 
while  the  lady's  right  hand  is  on  her  hip.  In  this 
position  they  chasse  forward,  starting  with  the  out- 
side foot. 

(8)  With  a  hop  they  make  an  appel  on  both  feet 
at  the  same  time,  with  the  inside  foot  placed  in  front, 
and  immediately  with  another  hop  make  an  appel 
on  both  feet  at  the  same  time,  with  the  outside  foot 
placed  in  front. 

(1-8)   Repeat  the  same. 

(The  couple  may,  also,  dance  with  cross  grasp.)

they  release  each  other's  hands,  and  each  dances  one 
chasse  to  the  right,  the  lady  toward  the  centre  and 
the  man  away  from  the  centre  of  the  room. 

(10)  After  the  chasse  step,  the  left  foot  is  placed 
a  little  forward  and  the  right  heel  is  lifted  slightly. 

(11)  Now  each  dances  one  chasse  to  the  left,  the 
man  toward  the  centre  and  the  lady  away  from  the 
centre  of  the  room. 

(12)  The  right  foot  is  placed  forward  and  the  left 
heel  is  raised. 


(13-16)   Repeat  the  same. 

C.  (9-16)  The  lady  dances  backward  with  chasse 
steps  in  front  of  the  man,  who  follows  her,  also,  with 
chasse  steps.  During  the  first  chasse  step  they  hold 
each  other  by  the  right  hand  at  shoulder  height,  and 
by  the  left  hand  during  the  second  chasse  step,  and 
continue  shifting  in  this  manner  ("Playing  with 
Golden  Apples"). 

D.  (17)  In  ordinary  position  dance  one  polka 
step,  turning  about  to  the  right. 

(18)  The  man  places  the  right  heel  and  the  lady

on  the  other  foot  the  man  reverses  his  right  foot  and 
touches  the  toe  ot  it  to  the  floor,  the  lady  doing  the 
same  with  the  left.

hop  each  touches  the  toe  of  the  same  foot  to  the 
floor.

dance  the  polka,  turning  about  to  the  right,  but

STICK   DANCE 


It  seems  that  this  dance  was  generally  used  as  a 
kind  of  competition  between  farmhands  to  show 
who  was  able  to  stand  it  longest.  To  the  tune 
"  The  Ever-Happy  Coppersmith "  they  used  to 
dance  a  dance  in  Br^nderslev  which  was  called  by 
the  name  of  the  tune. 

During  the  first  part  of  the  music  the  farmhands 
joined  hands  in  couples  and  danced  with  polka  steps 
around  the  room  with  great  speed.  Then  they  re- 
leased each  other  and  danced  opposite  each  other 
with  hop  steps,  clapping  their  hands  (i)  under  the 
right  leg,  (2)  above  the  head,  (3)  under  the  lett  leg, 
(4)  above  the  head,  (5)  again  under  the  right  leg, 
and  so  on.  The  legs  were  swung  high  when  the 
hands  were  clapped  under  them.  This  was  contin- 
ued to  the  end  of  the  music  and  then  the  dance  was 
begun  anew.  In  Sailing  a  stick  dance  was  known 
which  was  danced  to  the  tune  ot  "  The  Time  I 
Went  Away."  It  seems  that  here  each  man  danced 
by  himself.  Each  held  a  stick  in  either  hand  and 
danced  backward  with  hop  steps,  at  the  same  time 
beating  his  sticks  together  thus  :  —  (1)  in  front  ot 
him,  (2)  under  the  left  leg,  (3)  in  front  of  him,  (4) 


under  the  right  leg,  (5)  in  front  of  him,  (6)  behind 
his  back  with  the  ends  pointing  toward  the  floor, 
(7)  in  front  of  him  and  (8)  at  last  he  struck  both 
sticks  against  the  ceiling. 

The  "Stick  Dance"  published  here  is  from  Him- 
merland,  Jutland,  but  it  is  not  know  what  the  dance 
was  like  there. 

At  Lonstrup  it  was  danced  in  the  following  man- 
ner to  a  little  melody  in  %  time  : 

Music    :  1-8  :   :  9-16  : 

(1-8)  The  two  men  first  took  each  other  by  the 
hands  (or  around  the  waist)  and  danced  hopsa  or 
two-step. 

(9-16)  After  which  they  clapped  their  hands  as 
described  above. 

(1-8)    Then  they  danced  around  again  together, 

(9-16)  and  then  with  a  stick  in  each  hand  they 
danced  in  the  same  way  as  in  the  Stick  Dance  from 
Sailing.  It  is  evident  that  the  dance  was  a  test  ot 
endurance,  for  we  are  told  that  when  one  man  had 
to  stop  the  other  kept  it  up  for  a  while  longer  and 
continued  swinging  the  sticks  alone.

start,  except  that  the  first  lady  is  now  behind  and 
the  second  lady  in  front.  During  the  next  two 
steps  the  second  lady  lets  go  with  her  right  hand, 
swings  it  around  over  first  lady's  head  and  grasps 
the  first  lady's  left  hand,  which  the  first  lady  has  at 
the  same  time  crossed  in  front  of  her  under  the 
right  hand. 

The  dance  is  continued  in  the  same  manner.

FOUR-AND-A-HALF  DANCE 

(Island  of  Falster) 


Music  |  1-16  |  17-20  j :  21-28  :  | :  29-36  :   :  37~44 '  | 
Starting  Position.      Row   formation,  the   men  on 

the  left  side  as  seen  from  the  front,  the  ladies  on  the 

right. 

Steps.     Walking  Step,  Chasse  Step,  Balance  and 

Waltz. 

I.  (1-8)  First  couple  take  one  hand  grasp  with 
right  hands,  and  turn  once  around  slowly  and  se- 
dately (eight  steps). 

(9-16)  They  turn  and,  taking  left  hands,  go 
around  the  other  way. 

II.  (17-18)  The  first  man  and  his  lady  make  a 
deep  compliment  (bow  and  courtesy  respectively)  to 
each  other,  first  to  the  left  and  then  (19-20)  to  the 
right. 

III.  (|:2i-28  :)  The  first  man  gives  his  lady 
his  right  hand,  and  they  run,  with  chasse  steps,  down 
between  the  rows,  turn  around  to  the  left  without 
releasing  hands,  run  back  and  stand  before  the 
second  couple,  who  now  occupy  the  first  place. 

IV.  (29-36)  The  first  and  second  couples  make 
four  balances  (ladies  beginning  to  the  right  and  men 
to  the  left). 

(29-36)    First  couple  about  face  (lady  to  the 


right,  man  to  the  left)  and  make  four  balances  as 
before,  opposite  each  other. 

V.  (  :  37-44  :)  First  couple  waltz  down  between 
the  rows  and  back  again,  stopping  in  front  of  the 
second  couple  as  before. 

The  second  time  the  dance  is  done,  the  first  couple 
dance  as  they  did  the  first  time,  except  that  this 
time  they  make  the  balances  (of  IV)  in  front  of  the 
third  couple,  and  finish  after  the  waltz  (of  V)  in  front 
of  the  third  couple. 

The  third  time  the  second  couple  dance,  too, 
the  first  couple  making  the  balances  before  the 
fourth  couple  and  standing  after  the  waltz  in  front 
of  the  fourth  couple,  while  the  second  couple  does 
the  same  with  the  third  couple ;  and  so  on. 

Every  second  time  a  new  couple  begins.  When 
a  couple  has  danced  down  between  the  rows  and  done 
the  four  balances  before  each  couple,  they  take  their 
place  at  the  bottom  of  the  row. 

If  many  are  dancing,  the  fifth  and  ninth  couples 
(etc.)  may,  if  one  wishes,  begin  at  the  same  time  as 
the  first  couple,  and  act  as  first  couple  in  relation  to 
the  following  three  couples.

the  sun  (appel  at  the  beginning  and  at  the  turn). 

IV.  (17-20)  "Half  Chain."  A.  With  an  appel, 
ladies  and  men  go  toward  each  other,  (B)  men  take

opposite  row  in  exchanged  positions  as  related  to 
the  front. 


(21-24)  With  an  appel  the  rows  change  places  in 
the  same  manner  as  before,  except  that  the  first  and

keeping  the  row  formation,  release  hands,  face 
about  and  join  other  hands. 

(21-24)  With  an  appel  the  rows  change  places

The  dance  is  repeated,  and  this  time  the  first  and 
fourth  couples  and  third  and  sixth  couples  dance 
together,  while  the  second  and  fifth  couples  stand 
still.

every  time  so  that  one  couple  is  left  out  and  stands 
idle  at  one  and  the  other  end  of  the  row  alter- 
nately.

ond couple  (in  order  to  continue  the  dance  with 
the  fourth  couple)  the  men  and  ladies  nod  to  each 
other.

FIGURE-EIGHT   DANCE 

(Himmerland,  Jutland) 


Music    :  i-8  :  :  9-16  :  j 

Formation.  Two  couples,  one  behind  the  other, 
facing  a  third  couple,  with  a  distance  of  three  steps 
between  couples.  Seen  from  the  front,  first  couple 
to  the  left,  second  couple  opposite  them  and  third 
couple  behind  second  couple. 

Step.      Running  Step. 

All  three  couples  begin  running  at  the  same  time. 
First  couple  "cross,"  the  lady  running  across  in 
front  of  man  to  the  left  and  the  man  to  the  right, 
passing  outside  the  second  couple  and  on  to  the 
third.  At  the  same  time,  the  second  couple,  hand 
in  hand,  run  through,  down  to  the  first  couple's 
place  and  face  about  without  letting  go  of  each 
other. 

Meanwhile  the  first  couple  cross  with  third  cou- 

25614  71 


pie,  passing  outside  them,  the  lady  this  time  running 
to  the  right  and  the  man  to  the  left.  They  take 
the  third  couple's  place  and  face  in  the  same  direc- 
tion as  the  third  couple  did.  This  brings  them  so 
that  the  second  couple  occupy  the  first  couple's 
place,  first  couple  the  third's  place,  while  the  third 
couple  run  over  to  the  second  couple's  place. 
Without  pausing,  the  second  couple  now  cross  out- 
side the  third  and  first  couples,  who  run,  hand  in 
hand,  down  toward  first  couple's  place.  In  this  way 
they  continue,  so  that  as  soon  as  a  couple  occupy 
the  first  couple's  place,  they  immediately  cross  in 
front  of  the  approaching  couple,  again  in  front  of  the 
next  couple  and,  when  they  come  to  third  couple's 
place,  they  run,  hand  in  hand,  down  to  first  couple's 
place.

First  man  and  his  two  ladies  stand  with  hacks 
toward  the  front,  the  second  three  directly  opposite, 
facing  them,  the  third  three  back  of  the  second, 
facing  in  the  same  direction  as  the  second  three, 
and  so  on  with  any  number  of  threes. 

Steps.  "  Tinker's  Step,"  "  Other  Night's  Step,"

lady  with  waist  grasp  and  she  putting  her  hands  on 
his  shoulders.

and  dances  with  her  in  the  same  manner. 

B.  (9-10)  hirst  and  second  threes,  with  an  ap- 
pel,  advance  toward  each  other  three  steps  and  give

his   arm    with   Hop    Steps,   at   the    same   time  still

Cfaing  ;;;s  nana 


(9-16)  Repeat  as  before,  only  this  time  the  left 
lady  turns  around  to  the  right  under  the  man's  arm. 

C.  (17-20)  First  and  second  threes  form  a  circle, 
with  arm  grasp,  and  dance  around  with  hop  steps  to 
the  left. 

(21-24)   The  same  to  the  right. 

(17-24)  Each  three  now  forms  a  circle  of  its  own 
and  dances  around  to  the  left  and  to  the  right. 
During  this  they  move  around  to  the  left  and 
change  places. 

The  second  time,  the  first  three  dances  with  the 
third  three. 

The  third  time,  the  first  three  dances  with  the 
fourth,  and  the  second  three  with  the  third,  etc. 
Every  second  time  a  new  three  begins.  When  a 
three  has  danced  down  through  the  column,  they 
face  about  to  the  front  and  stand  still  during  one 
time.  The  threes  moving  away  from  the  front, 
dance  as  described  for  the  first  three,  while  those 
moving  up  toward  the  front  dance  as  described  for 
the  second  three.  When  many  threes  take  part  in 
the  dance,  the  fifth,  ninth  (and  so  on)  threes  may 
stand  with  backs  toward  the  front,  and  begin  at  the 
same  time  as  the  first  three.  They  thus  remain  as 
first  three  in  relation  to  the  three  following  threes.
